This sticky thread lists known issues and breaking changes introduced in the UI for ASP.NET AJAX releases.


Q3 2011 (Version number: 2011.3.1115)

Problem: When adding items to OData-enabled controls (RadMenu, RadTreeView, RadListBox, RadComboBox) through design time erroneous markup is applied to the control:

<telerik:RadListBox runat="server" ID="RadListBox1">
    <Items>
    </Items>
    <WebServiceSettings>
        <ODataSettings InitialContainerName="">
        </ODataSettings>
    </WebServiceSettings>
</telerik:RadListBox>

Please note the added ODataSettings section. It will cause JavaScript errors on the page.

Solution: Remove the ODataSetting section and the issue will vanish. The problem is also fixed in the Q3 SP1 release, version number 2011.3.1305

02 Feb to 09 Feb 2026: highlights of the new online resources that we published last week.

Article: https://www.telerik.com/products/aspnet-ajax/documentation/ai/troubleshooting
Summary: This guide helps you diagnose and fix issues when wiring Telerik UI for ASP.NET AJAX AI integration to OpenAI or Azure OpenAI. It covers common causes—invalid or missing API keys, incorrect base URL or api-version, using model names instead of Azure deployment names, 401/403/404/429 responses, TLS/firewall/CORS problems, and missing ScriptManager/resources—and shows how to verify web.config/code-behind settings, route calls through a server-side proxy, enable provider logging, and test requests independently. Use the checklists to validate payloads and model capabilities, handle timeouts and rate limits with retry/backoff, and confirm the controls are correctly initialized on the page.

When I run my project I'm getting this error

Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Web.UI' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

In my web.config I checked that the version in the web.config is the same as the version I'm using in references

<assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Web.UI" publicKeyToken="121fae78165ba3d4" culture="neutral" />

Hi , 

I’m working on aligning the loading dropdown that renders under rcbSlide with the width of the RadComboBox, even when an additional icon is present. Since rcbSlide resides outside the RadComboBox container, I need guidance on how to ensure the dropdown inherits or matches the RadComboBox width consistently.

I have a simple TreeView

    <telerik:RadTreeView ID="radTreeViewIndex" runat="server">
                    </telerik:RadTreeView>

That I am databinding on the page load.

My query returns heirarchical records such as the following

SPOP   TheKey     SYear     Norder

Null        A             Adult          4000
Null        P             Pediatric    3000
A            A2022     2022          2500
A            A2021      2021         2500
A           A2020      2020        2500
P            P2022     2022          2000
P            P2021      2021         2000
P           P2020      2020        2000

On the page load, I call the Oracle query, get back a cursor and construct the treeview by binding a data table to it

        DataTable dt1 =
            new DataTable();
        da1.Fill(dt1);
        RadTreeView radTreeViewIndex = (RadTreeView)FindControl("radTreeViewIndex");
        radTreeViewIndex.NodeDataBound += new RadTreeViewEventHandler(radTVI_click);
        radTreeViewIndex.DataFieldParentID = "SPOP";
        radTreeViewIndex.DataFieldID = "theKey";
        radTreeViewIndex.DataTextField = "sYear";
        radTreeViewIndex.DataValueField = "sYear";

        radTreeViewIndex.DataSource = dt1;
        radTreeViewIndex.DataBind();

The tree expanded would look like

> Adult

      - 2022 

     -  2021

     -  2020

> Pediatric

      - 2022 

     -  2021

     -  2020

The databinding and expanding/collapsing is working fine

That I am trying to now do and figure out how best to do is to navigate and load a grid based upon the click of a year

So clicking on Adult or Pediatric Nodes would only expand or collapse the tree
Clicking on the Year node would then call an event that would pass in the population and the year and then load that grid (to the right of the tree)  So for clicking on (Adult > 2021 ) node - was thinking navigating back to the page witth these values set, the tree expanded to show the selected node and the grid populated to display the records for population = adult and year = 2021

I was thinking I would add the event to the NodeDataBound

    protected void radTVI_click(object sender, RadTreeNodeEventArgs e)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(e.Node.NavigateUrl))
            e.Node.Attributes["onclick"] = "return Redirect(https://myjunkurl.com);";

    }

And then work with it to basically ignore or only have expand or collapse on the clicks of Adult or Pediatric but otherwise generate the URL to call the page and pass in the SPop and Year to then load the tree and grid.

I am trying to figure out how to accomplish this.  I am not sure if the RadGrid is best use

I have a data query that will return one or more records

Example - data returned may look like

UserID, User Full Name, User Status, Hire Date, Manager Name, Location, Skill Set, Last Review

And I want to format it as

Record 1

Row - User ID, User Full Name, User Status, Hire Date, Manager Name

Row - Location, Skill Set, Last Review

Next Record

Row - User ID, User Full Name, User Status, Hire Date, Manager Name

Row - Location, Skill Set, Last Review

Etc. 

I no problem filling data adapter, filling data table and then binding to grid in single row to record, but setting up multiple rows per record I am struggling. 

Thanks

Is there a JQuery version requirement for using the Telerik Web UI Controls in an ASP.Net Web Forms project?  I see the .NET 4.6.2+ but no JQuery version.

Hello

I have a page that is ajaxed using Ajax Manager.  There is a RadWindow on the page which uses navigateurl rather than contenttemplate to show a page within the site (so not an external URL)

That page also has AjaxManager on it.  When an ajaxed field within the window is changed the page does a partial postback correctly (and updates whatever it needs to do on itself) however the scroll position of the parent page scrolls to the top.

How do I stop that from happening?

I note that I am using this to scroll back to the window on window load because on opening the window it would scroll to the top as well

  function fnRadWindowPageLoad() {
                if (modalPopUpScrollPositionObj != null)
                    window.scrollTo(modalPopUpScrollPositionObj.XCoordinate(), modalPopUpScrollPositionObj.YCoordinate());
            }

 

I'm using this to open the window in the code behind, after I've done some processing

Dim sbScript As New System.Text.StringBuilder()

        'This needs the Sys.Application.Load event, as the button performs a full postback, thus disposes the entire user control, as well as the page
        sbScript.Append("function f(){")
        sbScript.Append("var oWnd = $find('" & RadWindowSearchFilter.ClientID & "');")
        sbScript.Append("oWnd.show();")
        sbScript.Append("Sys.Application.remove_load(f);")
        sbScript.Append("}")
        sbScript.Append("Sys.Application.add_load(f);")
        ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(Page, Me.GetType(), "key", sbScript.ToString(), True)
